Terrible Company Awful Move

This move was by far the worst move of my entire career. I had a budget alloted by my new company, so I was trying to find a good reasonable company. Big mistake! I thought that one of my previous moves was bad, but this was unbelievably bad. They misquoted my weight and price to the tune that my final bill was nearly double what they originally quoted. They sent a truck that was too small based on their miscalculations. Therefore, half of my belongings had to be left behind on the first trip to my new state. They would not tell me or stay in contact to let me know when they would come back to pick up the rest of my belongings. It was a full month before they came to finish the job, which delayed the ability to put the house on the market. There were several big items that were broken. That was acknowledged on the delivery papers, but they never followed up and ultimately would not return emails or calls when I attempted to contact them to find settlement. I have lost contact with them at this point, but am frustrated and not going to give up. I think that it is terrible that they treat people this way and that all of the promises and bashing of other companies when they are signing you up for delivery. Most of the reasons they gave to not pick other companies were more existent with them than in any of my previous moves. I would never recommend this company to anyone and have been forced to file a complaint with the better business bureau for the first time in my life. Stay away from these movers.
